Missing the Right Road

He was a good deeds doer
Of principles, a connoisseur,
But just couldn’t get it right
With friends and neighbors in a fight!
In pursuit of his own pleasure,
He overlooked that one true treasure:
Wife and friends and church.
Got himself stuck in a lurch!
Where would he go in the end,
No children or grands to attend
To his needs daily growing,
Now reaping all he was sowing?
